Shiek - Leonard Shelby - Memento


Burt Hadley: Oh shit. This is the wrong room. You're in 304 now. I'm sorry. I fucked up.
Leonard Shelby: This is not my room?
Burt Hadley: No, come on, let's go.
Leonard Shelby: Why is this my handwriting?
Burt Hadley: ...This was your room, but now you're in 304.
Leonard Shelby: When was I in here?
Burt Hadley: Last week. But then I rented you another room on top of it.
Leonard Shelby: Why?
Burt Hadley: Business is slow. I mean, I told my boss about the - your condition and stuff, and he said try and rent him another room.
Leonard Shelby: So how many rooms am I checked into in this shit-hole?
Burt Hadley: Just two, so far.
Leonard Shelby: Well, at least you're being honest about ripping me off.
Burt Hadley: Well, you're not gonna remember anyway.
Leonard Shelby: You don't have to be *that* honest, Burt.
Burt Hadley: Leonard, always get a receipt.
Leonard Shelby: That's good advice. I'll have to write that down.

Has any person operated in black out in a more efficient manner than Shiek? Actually the dude from Memento might remember more of an average weekend than Schmee.

Flash forward to the day before MB, Shiek wakes up with notes all over him:

Note - “Golf trip tomorrow” Shiek thinks “Sweet”

Note - “Buy a costume for you and Murph” Shiek thinks “Why the hell would I need a costume for golf?”

Note - “Don’t forget your golf clubs” Shiek thinks “That makes sense”

Note - “Bring the chest protector” Shiek “This makes no sense at all”

But when it all comes together, in a perfect storm of drinking, antics, yelling, screaming, and bits he can play like a madman down there. He is at his best when he is with the right partner on the right team against the right opponents, and when he is, he is unbeatable. If not, everybody wants to forget the round, Lord knows he will.

His Captain should leave a note on his chest every night, “Win your match today” that way he never forgets.

  3. Note - "Firefly is NOT the same as Twisted Tea" Sheik thinks "How did I get stuck between this desk and the wall"
